Yes.atomtengeralattjaro wrote:did you have to do this in Java?
Yes exactly, only that it supposed to merge two parts whenever two threads are finished sorting them.atomtengeralattjaro wrote: i'm not sure I fully understand the requirements..
say, there is a file with 100 words of text,
the user starts the program and gives 10 as an argument
so I have to sort ten batches of ten words, each on its own thread, and then merge them?
I'm not sure how the merging would work. You're supposed to get one perfectly sorted list, right? i think you'd have to wait for all the sorts to finish, and then use a single thread to merge the results. I haven't done anything similar, I doubt I could come up with an efficient solution, but i should try.

So... Anyone have any programming-related stuff they want to talk about? I probably have a quick Python script to write later today, converting a tab-separated text file to an XML file...
Oh well, I didn't think about it.atomtengeralattjaro wrote:That's.. more than eleven days.
